John Kleinig

Ends and Means in Policing (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

It is often suggested that the ends of policing justify the use of otherwise problematic means, but do they? This book explores the dialectic of ends and means (whether the ends justify the means or whether the ends never justify the means) and offers a new, sharpened perspective on police ethics.
